I know it has only been a week since I last wrote my blog
but there has been so much going on in school I feel like I have been here for
three. I have had numerous meetings to attend, lots of visitors in school, the
SATS results have been published, I had my termly visit from the school county
advisor, the new children and parents visited on Thursday while many of the
Year 6 children were visiting their new secondary schools and, today, it is the
school Summer Fayre - I will certainly be glad when the end of term
eventually arrives next week. Still, I
should not grumble as it is also a very enjoyable time of year with lots of
different activities taking place - I am certainly looking forward to the
Summer Fayre and before it even begins I would like to thank all the people
involved for all their time and energy in organising the event. Without the
efforts of the PTA the school certainly would not be as well resourced as it
is.
Last week I received a donation from an anonymous group of
parents of a trophy to present to a member of the Year 6 in their leaving assembly.
It was specified in the letter that I received with the trophy what they wanted
it awarded for. Although the governing
body and I very much appreciate the gesture we feel that the award duplicates
one that we already have. I would appreciate it if the parents who donated it
could come and see me.
Although everyone always looks forward to the end of term it
is also a bit of a sad time for us because we are losing our Year 6 for good.
We do wish them well in their new schools and we hope that they take happy
memories of Little Heath with them. We do try and make the last week of term
special for them as they have a party and a leavers’ assembly to which the
parents of Year 6 are invited. They also put on a performance for their friends
and families and the rest of the school have an opportunity to see it during
the week. This year it is ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and I know everyone who
has been invited is looking forward to watching it. As well as that the Year 6
have the opportunity to play the school staff at rounders. Every year I am
determined to win but every year we get beaten so if everyone could send
positive thoughts in my direction on Wednesday I would appreciate it – perhaps the
staff can finally break their losing streak this year.
I am sure that I will see many of you at the Summer Fayre
tonight although I will not be staying to the end as I have to attend a charity
event that I was committed to before the date for the Summer Fayre was set. I
hope you all have a great time and you all enjoy the rest of your weekend.
